How about a light hearted roving reporter like Andy grabbing about 3 attendees prior to a race and they can show us their ticket and do a brief "man on the street" interview ? The reporter can ask the folks for one race , "NBC is looking for the winner of this race, who's got the ticket ?" Have fun with 3 people and the winner receives a $75 voucher from NBC . Next race from a different part of the track..."NBC offers $100 voucher for the exacta ?" ...Then "Who's got some show bets ? $50 if your ticket cashes." ...etc....seems like fun to me.

I think that many people will turn off a guy like Andy Beyer just because they don't know who he is. Are they really going to care that Morty from Cleveland likes the 2 in the upcoming race? I'm thinking no. Now if you said that they would have someone discussing/demonstrating different types of wagers (i.e. pick 3's-pick 4's) and how much money they could win, maybe that would intrest a few people that they might want to eventually jump into the water.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I see your point but you need to lighten up . Last year's $10,000 guy was fun. http://web.sny.tv/schedule/beermoney.jsp Or they can just give away cash on the spot . Did you ever see "Beer Money" the 1/2 hour show from NY where they ask different folks, mostly in bars, trivia questions for $10, then they can roll it if they get the next question right for $20 and then if they get all 3 right they win $100 or lose it all . I think it's a helluva lot of fun to see the characters in this world have some fun . Especially at spots around the track .

But to go around asking random people, who do you have and having to hear them say I bet the 14 because that my cat's name isn't going to do much for the sport/program. Have you ever watched the Late Double on TVG when they go around and talk to people in the crowd? If so then you should see my point.
